The Last Knight Premier Edition Optimus Prime Packing Image

I kind of wonder how this is going to be released. Is it just going to be an early release available at general retail or is it going to be exclusive to somewhere? I can't imagine it being that much different from the real voyager like First Edition AoE Prime was (or leader class, you know what I mean).

I think I'll wait to see what the Japanese do with it.

Correct, the red vertical logo is the one for the overall brand and used in all lines. It's been like that since Age of Extinction, and it's used by both Hasbro and TakaraTomy no less.

Take this with an entire bucket of salt, but it appears that a user on /toy/ has found a leaked image of what seems to be the leader class version of Optimus Prime from the upcoming Transformers: The Last Knight live-action movie toyline. The image, mirrored below, is a grey prototype with blue helmet and sword - check it out, and speculate away!

My AOE Prime is practically in the trash can already. If this thing has a decent vehicle mode, then I'll pay up. That's some Masterpiece level engineering!

Let's hope this is at Toy Fair. I wonder how many people are going to buy the Premier Edition knowing this is potentially coming later?

If this is real then it's nice to see Hasbro finally realizing that a movie that'll likely gross a billion dollars is worth a toy line with a big budget. They seemed to forget that with AOE, but this could be a sign of them returning to the level we saw with the RotF and DotM lines. I'm thinking we might get a proper Triple Changer Drift in this line.

Thats because its a 3p figure:



And I guess its their take on Optimus from Prime, not the movie universe. But both take hint of one another so it could go either way.

That's definitely based on the AOE Optimus design. No other Optimus has those torso pectoral pieces, that shoulder kibble, that knight skirt, and that pair of back-mounted triple smokestacks.
